Time to Get Frosty ❄️🍻
If you like your beer like you like the February forecast in NC (read: cold), you’re gonna wanna head to Raleigh Beer Garden for its Big Frosty Beer Festival on Saturday, Feb. 4! There will be more than two dozen breweries offering samples of over 50 beers, ciders, and ginger brews—plus food and live music from Mysti Mayhem & Pam McCarthy. Sounds pretty cool, right?!
Doughnut Stop Believing 🍩
5 miles. 12 doughnuts. 1 hour. The annual Krispy Kreme Challenge is back Saturday, Feb. 4! The student-run charity race benefiting UNC Children’s Hospital requires participants to run from the Memorial Belltower on NC State’s campus to the Krispy Kreme on the corner of Peace and Person Streets, consume a dozen original glazed doughnuts, then run the 2.5 miles back to the Belltower. Think you have the guts to compete?!
Later, Sk8r 🛹
Calling all sk8r boys and girls! Skate Raleigh is hosting a pop-up skatepark at Moore Square on Sunday, Feb. 5, complete with amps, boxes, and rails. Skateboarders, rollerbladers, scooters, and spectators alike are invited to join in on the fun! P.S. BYOH (bring your own helmet).

Friday Five: We’re Coming for You February
On the 100th day of January, we are ready for February. Don’t worry, I have your Sunday Funday plans but then my eyes are on the month of love. So, get out your calendars and pour yourself a cocktail—the weekend is here and so is your Friday Five!
But First… Last Chance for Your Passport
Your Triangle Food Passport, that is. Sassool has teamed up with other local businesses to create a “passport” with offers from twelve different restaurants, cafes, grocers, coffee shops, and ice cream shops. With the purchase of this passport, these local businesses invite diners to redeem each offer and receive a “stamp” on their Triangle Food Passport. The passports are $25 and can be purchased online but we are giving away one for free this month!
